how can it be "notable"? its BAD. Revenge of the sith is the only one that even comes close to decent saber combat and even that feels like little more than your run of the mill beat em up. i reckon dismemberment could be done tastefully....  [Read More]

so basically you want to rip off Fable's fear/respect system? Well thats all well and good but in my opinion it became more of a pain in the ass than a "cool feature". Sure it was cool to be recognized to begin with but after the hundred th...  [Read More]

Or he might not be bothered at all. I came in KotOR without any knowledge of the D20 system and haven't even touched either Baldur's Gate or NWN. It didn't bother me, as I don't think people are as bothered with it as you make it sound. I think &quo...  [Read More]
